_-Devil's Daughter-_

"D.D, don't hold back..." He hissed in my ear. I glared into nothing, my way of saying that I would never hold back, no matter who I'm going after.

I closed my eyes and listened closely to hear my target's footsteps. After I pinpoint exactly where he is, I take out my katana silently. I quickly went through the information in my head while running.

'Target name: Hoji Makimara.

Target location: between Sand and Leaf village.

Target description: large, dark hair, blue eyes, medium tone skin.

Reason for targeting:'

That's all the he let me see before he yanked the folder away... I am about to kill a man that could be completely innocent for all I know.

I push those thoughts away and jump through the branches to land on the branch right behind him, staring at the back of his head.

I silently go to stand behind him and quickly hit a pressure point, making him paralyzed with his muscles tensed. I walk around until I'm in front of him. As soon as he sees my mask, his eyes widen, but he doesn't yell or scream.

"Y-you-"

Before he could finish, I stab Hoji's throat, feeling his heartbeat along my blade, quickening, then slowing down. I don't pull my sword out until I feel his pulse completely disappear. When I no longer feel the beating of his heart, I slowly pull my precious katana out and flick it out, ridding it of his blood.

His lifeless body falls to the ground. I turn around, walking the opposite way while putting my katana away.

"Where do you think you're going?" He whispered in my ear. I was used to this so I didn't jump.

"For a walk." I said with no emotion. I've learned that if I show anything in front of him, he will use it against me.

"Okay, just don't go too far.." Then he disappears, probably going back to the base.

I walk for a bit, then I sit on the ground. I make a hand sign, close my eyes and focus my chakra to my ears, enhancing my hearing. I hear his footsteps along with his follower's heading towards the base. I then hear footsteps closer, they seemed like they were walking. Two had light footsteps, one was have light, and the last two were almost stomping. The first three are ninjas and the others are probably the ones the ninjas are protecting, I think.

I open my eyes, get up and run in the direction of the footsteps, hoping to know who they are by the bingo book I carry. When I finally get to the place I heard the footsteps, I see a man who looks familiar. I pull out my bingo book and look through the pages, silently keeping pace with them while hiding in the trees. Then I find the page while they pass a puddle, idiots, everyone knows it hasn't rained in weeks, I think while looking at the picture, confirming that it is indeed the man I'm watching. When I'm sure it's him, I look at the name.

Kakashi Hatake of the Sharingon eye

Oh, now I remember him, she told me about him.

He's also where I got the inspiration for my mask from, except mine has the kanji for devil on it in red, which may or may not be written in blood.

I then saw them get attacked, Hatake seemingly getting killed, but later showing that he used a substitution jutsu. One wearing orange stabs himself, but after that gets settled, they continue.

I observe the rest of the group closer. One of the heavy walkers is an old man that seemed like he was hiding something from the others. The other one being a boy who was dressed in all orange. Not smart, you can't blend in to your surroundings if you wear something as bright as that.

The second one with light footsteps, other than Hatake, was a boy with black hair, matching his eyes, and a serious look in his eyes. He looks like an Uchiha, wait didn't Itachi leave his brother alive? This must be Sasuke.

I then move to the last one. Ew, why pink? I do like her green eyes though, but there not as bright as mine. But the pink outfit is just a bright if not brighter than the orange, idiot. Then I saw her trying to get Sasuke's attention. Ugh, I bet she does that all the time... I hope she's the only one though...

They then all go to a boat and get inside. I just pull out my waterproof bag and put my clothes in it so they will stay dry. I then gracefully dive into the water, barely making a splash. I swim close to the boat, not close enough so they'll hear me, but I can hear their conversation.

The beginning of the ride was silent. But then the annoying orange one decided to yell out about how he thought the bridge was "huge" breaking the silence. After they scolded him, the so-called "bridge builder" was actually being hunted down by a rich gangster named Gatoh. I didn't listen to much else.

When we arrived at the shore, I waited until they walked for a bit, then got out and changed back into my black long-sleeve kimono with red around the end of the sleeves, red obi (the thing around the waist of a kimono), and red boots that go to right below my knees. I put my bag back over my shoulder and take off my mask for a few seconds, after looking around really fast, to wring it out so I'm not breathing in water. Finally, I fix my ponytail, keeping the shorter pieces out so they could frame my face.

I run into the forest, catching up to them. The orange one is throwing random kunai at the trees and bushes, some nearly hitting me, but I don't think he was aiming really for anything. I then feel a chakra behind me. I whipped around, taking my mini katana, named Kata, out of my messenger bag, those weapon pouches are just too small. When I turn around, I see Zabuza Momochi, I know because I remember most of the bingo book, not all of it though.

He picks up his sword and smirks as he brings it down, ready to cut me in half. I block the huge weapon with Kata, and his smirk falters. I then smirk, but get distracted by someone yelling about almost killing a rabbit. He kicks my stomach, forcing me into the pathway where the people can see me. I land on my back, the air forced out of me. I turn over and cough a few times.

"Duck!" I hear in front of me. I look up to see the people I was following close to the ground, then Zabuza's sword goes over their heads. I look down coughing again, still recovering from that kick.

"Wow, you really are just a weak little girl aren't you?" He says, reminding me a little too much of him.

I growl, getting up, although keeping my head down, my blood red bangs covering my face. I turn towards Zabuza, away from the others. I look up and glare at him, pulling out my bingo book, flipping to his page and checking the info on him. Blah blah blah, demon of the mist, blah blah blah, killed comrades, blah blah blah. Ugh, I already know all this.

"Are you going to read, or are you going to fight me?" He asks, taunting me. I close the book, and slowly pull out Kana, my full length katana. The same sword I used to kill Hoji earlier. He smirked, getting cocky again.

"Hey! Why can that girl fight him and we can't Kakashi-sensai?" I hear the voice of the orange one earlier.

"Because, Naruto, she probably has a better chance than all of us together." I hear him respond, I smirk. Damn right. I then store the name into memory. Blonde idiot in orange = Naruto.

"Oh, so Kakashi of the Sharingon eye is doubting himself? What a strange sight to see." Zabuza says, mocking Hatake. I see Sasuke's eyes widen when he says Sharingon. Then they go into this whole discussion about what the Sharingon is and what it does and stuff. About halfway through I sit down, close my eyes, and start meditating.

"Are you really that confident in yourself?" Zabuza asks. I nod. "Are you going to speak at all?" I shake my head, there's no need to waste my breath on him.

I then tune him out, focusing on the vibrations of everyone's feet on the ground. Zabuza was still on his sword in the tree, so his vibrations were fainter than everyone else's, but I could still feel them.

I feel him get off his sword, take it out of the tree, and run towards me.

"Hey, look out!" I hear a girl's voice yell. It's not smart to doubt me little girl.

I move a little to the left, his sword missing my face by a few centimeters. Zabuza growls, turning his sword quickly, scratching my face and putting a small cut in my mask. Great, now I'm going to have to fix that.

"Not so cocky now, huh?" He said, and I could hear his smirk. I smirked under my mask, I'm always cocky.

I sweep my foot under him, tripping him so he falls to the floor. I then take Kata from my bag. I hold the short blade in my left hand, placing it against my arm in my black kimono, hiding it from view.

He growls, getting up from the ground. He makes a water clone and attacks me along with his clone. Mind you, this whole time I haven't opened my eyes.

"Open your eyes, dammit!" Zabuza yelled, and I heard gasps behind me.

"Her eyes are closed...?" I heard the girl mutter, and I smirk. Yeah, it's so I don't have to see his ugly face.

I dodge another one of his attacks, and I notice that his movements are getting sloppy. I smile, my turn.

I swing Kana in his direction, feeling the very slight delay in her motions. Ha! Gotcha.

"Shit! That hurt! Your gonna pay for that." He said, and I could feel his glare.

I actually don't believe I will. I said in my head, smirking in his direction.

I then feel a new set of footsteps in the trees around us, but I pay no mind to them, focusing on the giant sword heading in my direction.

I dodge, then sheath Kana, walking in his direction, while making hand signs. Suddenly, I feel a sharp pain in my neck, and my pulse disappears.
